Abdominal Guard
Shop high-quality cricket abdominal guards designed for reliable protection, comfort, and a secure fit. Ideal for batsmen, wicketkeepers, and cricket players
Cricket abdominal guards from Heega Sports — the one piece of protection nobody should bat or keep without. A rigid, contoured shell spreads the impact of a hard ball while staying comfortable enough to forget about at the crease. Junior to adult sizes; shipped worldwide in 4–5 days.
Getting the fit right
An abdominal guard only works if it's held firmly in place. Wear it inside a proper jockstrap or a pair of briefs with a guard pocket — not loose inside your trousers, where it shifts at exactly the wrong moment. It should sit snugly against the body with no gap at the top, and it shouldn't restrict you when you run.
Who needs one
Every batter and every wicket-keeper facing a hard ball, at every level, from the first junior net session onwards. Close-in fielders should wear one too. Even in tennis-ball cricket, a taped ball off a length carries enough to make the argument for you.
Frequently asked questions
How do I wear an abdominal guard?
Inside a jockstrap or briefs with a guard pocket, sitting snugly against the body with no gap at the top. Worn loose it moves out of position and stops protecting you.
What size abdominal guard do I need?
Match the size to the player's age and build — junior for young players, youth for teenagers, men's for adults. A guard that's too large gaps at the edges and one that's too small leaves you exposed.
Do wicket-keepers need one?
Yes. Keepers take deflections and bad bounces from close range, and an abdominal guard is standard kit behind the stumps.
